Perhaps I did not do a great job of describing what I want out of the guitar's sound. I should clarify that my description was *relative to body size*, as in a 000 with forward-shifted bracing sounding "bass-y-er" than a 000 with a rear-shifted bracing -- while knowing that both are less "bass-y" than a dreadnought or deep-body 000. Balance is the number one tonal quality I want to find, and I think I am leaning towards a 000, but I am still considering going the dreadnought route -- I'm not a small guy, so the deep body isn't that uncomfortable, but I certainly like playing my electrics and so a thinner body feels more normal to me. I need to decide for myself what I want more! Thank you all again for your advice and suggestions, they have been more than helpful. When I eventually make my purchase, perhaps I will put up a "New Guitar Day" post! Until then, I will be around the forum trying to learn whatever I can and watching more YouTube videos and playing more guitars haha. Oh, and watching the classifieds ;-) P.S. I want to shout-out to my Sony MDR-7506 headphones, without which watching YouTube videos would be a lot less useful. Best $70 you can spend if you are going guitar-shopping, in my humble opinion! Thanks, - Tom |

Some good opinions here in my original NGD. https://www.acousticguitarforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=505826&page=1 Update to my last post in the thread - I went back in and cancelled the order for the D-28, and ordered a reimagined M-36. Couldn't be happier.

I'm trying to downsize the number of wooden instruments, but the new Reimagined M-36 in Amberburst is about everything I could want in a wooden guitar.
